Hello, my name is Paulette Granger. I'm a lifestyle director.
What does the monthly fee include?
The monthly fee at an independent living community usually covers the apartment and a set of services. The exact list differs from place to place.
It often includes utilities, housekeeping, repairs and some meals in a shared dining room. Many also include planned events and rides for errands and doctor visits. Shared spaces, like a gym or a library, are often part of it too. Guest meals, extra meals and some trips might cost more.
Call the office if you have questions about your visit or your service. This is general information, not personal instructions. The staff at your community can explain what your own fee covers.
Thanks for watching.
